Chapter 308 - 308: Meeting Of Elites
The Lin Family ancestor didn't hesitate at all to leave True Light City, bringing Lin Fan onto a personal airship that headed off in a northern direction.
True Light City was in the south with Green Wood City, but it wasn't as south as Green Wood City.
The airship they were on was currently heading north, towards the center of the continent since there was a special city in the center of the continent. It was the city that was the center of the Eastern Continent, the city occupied by the main branch of the Union Government.
This city wasn't considered a S Ranked City, rather it had no rank at all since it surpassed the concept of ranks completely. This was a city that was above all the cities since it gathered all the elites of the Eastern Continent.
On the surface, there were only the five Legendary Realm Experts on the Eastern Continent, but there was actually much more than that. However, those experts couldn't be considered part of the Eastern Continent since they were a part of the Union Government.
The Union Government was the organization that governed all of humanity on the Blue Star Planet, so those that worked for the Union Government were a part of all of humanity, not just a single continent.
Take the general that Lin Fan had met previously on his way to Green Wood City.
There were many Legendary Realm Experts like him in the Union Government and even though they were born on the Eastern Continent, grew up there, and trained there, they were now part of the Union Government.
If all the Legendary Realm Experts on the Eastern Continent were counted, it would be more than one could count on two hands alone.
Along the way, neither of the two said a thing as they sat there in a room, looking at each other and looking out the window from time to time.
Since they were taking the Lin Family ancestor's private airship, which was much better than normal airships, being able to travel at four to five times the normal speed, it didn't take them long to arrive.
Before they did arrive however, the Lin Family ancestor said, "I know you have a lot of questions you want to ask, but I'll answer them once we finish this."
Lin Fan looked at him before calmly giving a nod, not saying a thing.
The city they arrived in was called Central City, it was one of the five Central Cities of the Blue Star Planet.
The Union Government had five different branches, one for each of the five continents. All the cities that these five branches were in were all called Central City.
They were named this because this was the center of humanity on this planet, since each Central City was where the Union Government was.
When they arrived, they were immediately greeted by Union Government forces who brought the two of them to the giant tower that was in the center of the city.
This tower, just like the city, was also called Central Tower. It was the headquarters of the Union Government and where the elites of the Blue Star Planet gathered.
When Lin Fan arrived, he couldn't help being surprised.
He wasn't surprised at the tower that reached all the way into the sky, rather he was shocked by the number of elites that were around.
There were Platinum Realm Experts that were standing all over and only Platinum Realm Experts. There was no one under the Platinum Realm that was present.
But not only that, there were five different Legendary Realm Experts also present.
One of them was someone that Lin Fan recognized, it was Mu Bo Hai from Green Wood City.
When Mu Bo Hai noticed Lin Fan looking over, he gave him a nod with a smile before turning to head into the tower.
He had seen that Lin Fan was with the Lin Family ancestor, so he knew that this was no time for polite greetings. Not to mention that important matter that they had all been gathered here for.
The Lin Family ancestor didn't wait either, he just led Lin Fan into the tower and soon they were on an elevator that was heading right to the top floor.
Lin Fan couldn't understand what was happening here, but he knew that this situation was serious. If it wasn't, they wouldn't have gathered five Legendary Realm Experts here. Not to mention that Lin Fan could sense even more of them above them.
Could it be that it was related to the phenomenon that he felt before the Lin Family ancestor had appeared?
But what could cause that kind of phenomenon?
Lin Fan's questions were answered quite quickly.
After they reached the top floor, Lin Fan and the Lin Family ancestor arrived at a conference room where there were already people sitting there.
There were a few people that Lin Fan recognized, all of them were Legendary Realm Experts.
It was Mu Bo Hai, Zhu Ba Jie, Jiang Wan Li, and the Grand General of the Union Government's forces.
However, it wasn't just them that were gathered here, there were still plenty of other Legendary Realm Experts.
If one had to describe what this meeting was, the best way to describe it was the elites of elites.
It seemed that all of the most powerful experts on the Eastern Continent were gathered here today.
Judging by their expressions, it seemed like this was quite the serious meeting.
The Lin Family ancestor brought Lin Fan over to a seat with a card that read 'Lin' in front of it and he sat down. Lin Fan looked around and saw what the other followers were doing, so he stood behind the Lin Family ancestor like the rest of them.
It didn't take long before the meeting started.
The lights in the room dimmed and the position at the head of the table suddenly lit up as a person walked over to take it.
Judging by his aura, this person was clearly a Legendary Realm Expert, but that wasn't surprising since almost everyone else present were also Legendary Realm Experts.
The one thing that was surprising was that everyone seemed to look at him in a respectful manner.
That person paused for a second before he calmly said, "Everyone, it's the worst possible situation. It's a beast horde."
The atmosphere in the room became heavy the moment he said this.
Everyone was silent, not a single person said a word. Even if they wanted to, they would have swallowed it back under this pressure.
They all knew what this beast horde meant even though it was something that had never happened since the establishment of the Union Government. Or rather, it should be said that the Union Government was only formed because the beast horde had happened.
The beast horde was the complete break of all current planar cracks on the Blue Star Planet, it symbolized an all out invasion by the Beast Race.
The last time that this had happened, it was because the Beast Race had come for the fallen Beast King's legacy.
The Union Government was subsequently formed by the followers of the princess who had directed the upper realm factions to come down to this lower realm.
For this beast horde to happen, it would mean that one of their Kings would have to injure their own cultivation to activate a special spatial law array that would allow them to force all the planar cracks to break.
But for them to do this for just a single lower realm Blue Star Planet, it didn't make sense at all.
There were planar cracks all over the Blue Star Planet, but most of them were actually gathered on the Eastern Continent, so this meant that this situation was much worse for them than the other continents.
It was at this time that they needed to gather all their experts since this was now a full on war with the Beast Race.
One of the Legendary Realm Experts sitting in the room couldn't help asking, "How did this happen? Why is this happening? Is there any information at all?"
The person who was standing at the head of the table shook his head before saying, "We have no idea at all, the only thing we have right now is the influx of spatial law energy which tells us that the planar cracks have broken. As well as various reports of beast waves attacking strongholds all over the continent."
Everyone knitted their brows when they heard this, especially the five Legendary Realm Experts that weren't a part of the Union Government.
There had been planar cracks near their cities and if a break was to happen, they should be there protecting their cities and their families instead of being here. The only reason they came was because of the special summons of the Union Government president.
The person standing at the head of the table could naturally tell what they were thinking, so he said, "You don't have to worry, the only strongholds they are attacking are the ones in their way. For some reason, it seems like all the beast waves are gathering in a single position."
He tapped the table in front of him and there was a map of the Eastern Continent that appeared. All over the map were various red waves that were heading towards a single red dot that was in the southern part of the map.
It was actually right by Snow Wind City!
